- If you could ride on a current of clean fresh air, enter a home and replace the stale, stuffy air up to 20 times per hour, eliminating orders, pollutants, pet dander and more, all while saving you 50 to 90% off your AC cost, it's because of the advanced whole-house fan by QuietCool. So, sit back and relax, and don't touch that remote. Because I'm going to tell you how to enjoy better health and comfort for just pennies an hour. I know what you're thinking. I'm wearing a QuietCool shirt and I'm standing in our showroom. So, what do you think it would take for actual customers to take time to give testimonial, singing the praises of QuietCool? All it takes is appreciation and truth. Check it out.
- I ran my AC considerably less, and it saved me a lot of money in the Summer.
- I think we turned it on only maybe three times this summer.
- Our air conditioner is hardly ever on anymore. The QuietCool just makes the house so cool in the middle of the night. It's just been a big difference.
- Me being home a lot, I haven't put on the AC at all.
- We absolutely save money off our electricity bill. I use to run the AC 24/7 in the Summer. I don't have to do that anymore.
- Air conditioning bill this Summer, and the electricity bill in the Summer was about $700, a month. And then after the QuietCool's installed, it went down to about $200 a month.
- Okay, you've heard it straight from the horse's mouth. Real QuietCool customers, real testimonials. Just because they're so happy with our product. So, how does it work? Understanding thermal mass cooling is an essential principle to how QuietCool whole house fans work. Here's an example. When someone comes home from work, they enter a house that could be upwards of 90 degrees. Do they immediately turn on the air conditioner? Not with QuietCool. An AC system alone would take too much time and be incredibly expensive. It's just like when you'd get into a car on a hot Summer day. What's the first thing do? You open the windows to let the hot air out, right? When you start driving, the airflow begins to exchange the hot air, then you roll up the windows, and turn on your car's AC. A QuietCool home owner won't open a few windows, turn on their QuietCool fan and let fresh cooler air evacuate their home of the existing stale air. The QuietCool fan creates an active breeze, which not only cools the inside air, but also cools down the mass of the home. Instead of recycling hot, stale, ambient air like a closed loop AC unit, the QuietCool system exchanges the stale air with fresh, cool, outside air to an open-loop, whole house ventilation system. And, at a fraction of the cost of running an air conditioner. Now that your home's thermal mass has been cooled, what are the benefits of this? A cool thermal mass home does not reheat as much or as quickly as a hot thermal mass home. Within a day or two of installing a QuietCool system, home owners are amazed when they come home after work, and it's 90 or a hundred degrees outside; they walk into a home that is not 90 degrees, but maybe in the mid 70's. That's because the thermal mass of the home has been cooled by the QuietCool system, and did not reheat as rapidly throughout the day as a typical home would. This not only raises the comfort level of these living in the home, but it also will drastically reduce your AC usage, bringing down the AC related cost, and will help your air conditioning unit last longer. Pacific Gas and Electric claims that whole house fans use up to 90% less energy than compressor-based air conditioners. The USDepartment of Energy reports that installing a whole house fan is the most cost efficient way to cool your home. A UCLA study found that a whole house fan essentially eliminated the need for an air conditioner in 10 of the 16 California climate zones.
- I almost had to do a hard sell on this with my husband, because he wasn't sure of the benefits. The very first time we turned the thing on, he stood there with me in the hallway and said, wow, this is amazing. And I thought to myself, why didn't we do this years earlier.
- I've also invested in solar electric some years back, which was a great investment. But, dollar for dollar, this is far and away the best investment I ever made in my home.
- So, would you say you love your QuietCool?
- I love my QuietCool system.
- I do love it.
- I love it too.
- I would say I love my QuietCool system. There's no, in four words, in five words, I love my QuietCool. I love it.
- Oh, I totally love the whole system, yeah. I love the features on the switches, that there's many different options, and on the timer. I loved it so much, my sister as well came over and saw how great it was, she got one installed and loves it too.

A new feature introduced by the new RielloUPS NextEnergy series is the ActiveECO operating mode: the UPS works in very high efficiency mode (with bypass load supply) while the inverter is active with to supply reactive power. This guarantees very high efficiency and at the same time the UPS input power factor remains close to the unit, regardless of the load power factor. This guarantees the abatement of the plant CAPEX and OPEX.

The point we are trying to make is that OEM's state in their installation manuals that static pressure levels above .60 wci in a duct run are not acceptable, yet the present code could technically approve a duct run that amounts to 1.25 wci of pressure.
How is that possible? For two main reasons; the termination hoods have no governing criteria as it relates to static pressures they create, and the typical ell the trade uses creates much more pressure than what the code 5 foot reduction penalty implies.
How we figured:
The use of a 4" x 4" gooseneck roof vent (.70 wci), 25 feet of pipe at .01 wci per foot (.25 wci), two standard ells at .15 each (.30 wci)

IHC Hydrohammer, IHC HandlingSystems and IHC Sea Steel are extremely successful when it comes to reducing the costs of installing offshore foundations. This leading role in cost reduction is based on a combination of systems with a proven track record and new innovations.

Reduce (computer algebra system)

The development of the Reduce computer algebra system was started in the 1960s by Anthony C. Hearn. Since then, many scientists from all over the world have contributed to its development under his direction.

Reduce is written entirely in its own LISP dialect called Portable Standard LISP, expressed in an Algol-like syntax called RLISP. The latter is used as a basis for Reduce's user-level language.

Intuitively, problem A is reducible to problem B if an algorithm for solving problem B efficiently (if it existed) could also be used as a subroutine to solve problem A efficiently. When this is true, solving A cannot be harder than solving B. "Harder" means having a higher estimate of the required computational resources in a given context (e.g., higher time complexity, etc.).

We write A ≤m B, usually with a subscript on the ≤ to indicate the type of reduction being used (m: mapping reduction, p: polynomial reduction).

Installation (Christianity)

Installation in a Christian liturgical act that formally inducts an incumbent into a new role in a particularl place such as a cathedral. The term arises from the act of symbolically leading the incumbent to their stall within the cathedral or other place of worship. Within the Anglican tradition it is commonly used when inaugurating a new Dean or Canon.

Installation art

Installation art is an artistic genre of three-dimensional works that often are site-specific and designed to transform the perception of a space. Generally, the term is applied to interior spaces, whereas exterior interventions are often called public art, land art or intervention art; however, the boundaries between these terms overlap.

History

Installation art can be either temporary or permanent. Installation artworks have been constructed in exhibition spaces such as museums and galleries, as well as public and private spaces. The genre incorporates a broad range of everyday and natural materials, which are often chosen for their "evocative" qualities, as well as new media such as video, sound, performance, immersive virtual reality and the internet. Many installations are site-specific in that they are designed to exist only in the space for which they were created, appealing to qualities evident in a three-dimensional immersive medium. Artistic collectives such as the Exhibition Lab at New York's American Museum of Natural History created environments to showcase the natural world in as realistic a medium as possible. Likewise, Walt Disney Imagineering employed a similar philosophy when designing the multiple immersive spaces for Disneyland in 1955. Since its acceptance as a separate discipline, a number of institutions focusing on Installation art were created. These included the Mattress Factory, Pittsburgh, the Museum of Installation in London, and the Fairy Doors of Ann Arbor, MI, among others.

How to reduce your clothes drying time and save energy costs

The point we are trying to make is that OEM's state in their installation manuals that static pressure levels above .60 wci in a duct run are not acceptable, yet the present code could technically approve a duct run that amounts to 1.25 wci of pressure.
How is that possible? For two main reasons; the termination hoods have no governing criteria as it relates to static pressures they create, and the typical ell the trade uses creates much more pressure than what the code 5 foot reduction penalty implies.
How we figured:
The use of a 4" x 4" gooseneck roof vent (.70 wci), 25 feet of pipe at .01 wci per foot (.25 wci), two standard ells at .15 each (.30 wci)

- If you could ride on a current of clean fresh air, enter a home and replace the stale, stuffy air up to 20 times per hour, eliminating orders, pollutants, pet dander and more, all while saving you 50 to 90% off your AC cost, it's because of the advanced whole-house fan by QuietCool. So, sit back and relax, and don't touch that remote. Because I'm going to tell you how to enjoy better health and comfort for just pennies an hour. I know what you're thinking. I'm wearing a QuietCool shirt and I'm standing in our showroom. So, what do you think it would take for actual customers to take time to give testimonial, singing the praises of QuietCool? All it takes is appreciation and truth. Check it out.
- I ran my AC considerably less, and it saved me a lot of money in the Summer.
- I think we turned it on only maybe three times this summer.
- Our air conditioner is hardly ever on anymore. The QuietCool just makes the house so cool in the middle of the night. It's just been a big difference.
- Me being home a lot, I haven't put on the AC at all.
- We absolutely save money off our electricity bill. I use to run the AC 24/7 in the Summer. I don't have to do that anymore.
- Air conditioning bill this Summer, and the electricity bill in the Summer was about $700, a month. And then after the QuietCool's installed, it went down to about $200 a month.
- Okay, you've heard it straight from the horse's mouth. Real QuietCool customers, real testimonials. Just because they're so happy with our product. So, how does it work? Understanding thermal mass cooling is an essential principle to how QuietCool whole house fans work. Here's an example. When someone comes home from work, they enter a house that could be upwards of 90 degrees. Do they immediately turn on the air conditioner? Not with QuietCool. An AC system alone would take too much time and be incredibly expensive. It's just like when you'd get into a car on a hot Summer day. What's the first thing do? You open the windows to let the hot air out, right? When you start driving, the airflow begins to exchange the hot air, then you roll up the windows, and turn on your car's AC. A QuietCool home owner won't open a few windows, turn on their QuietCool fan and let fresh cooler air evacuate their home of the existing stale air. The QuietCool fan creates an active breeze, which not only cools the inside air, but also cools down the mass of the home. Instead of recycling hot, stale, ambient air like a closed loop AC unit, the QuietCool system exchanges the stale air with fresh, cool, outside air to an open-loop, whole house ventilation system. And, at a fraction of the cost of running an air conditioner. Now that your home's thermal mass has been cooled, what are the benefits of this? A cool thermal mass home does not reheat as much or as quickly as a hot thermal mass home. Within a day or two of installing a QuietCool system, home owners are amazed when they come home after work, and it's 90 or a hundred degrees outside; they walk into a home that is not 90 degrees, but maybe in the mid 70's. That's because the thermal mass of the home has been cooled by the QuietCool system, and did not reheat as rapidly throughout the day as a typical home would. This not only raises the comfort level of these living in the home, but it also will drastically reduce your AC usage, bringing down the AC related cost, and will help your air conditioning unit last longer. Pacific Gas and Electric claims that whole house fans use up to 90% less energy than compressor-based air conditioners. The USDepartment of Energy reports that installing a whole house fan is the most cost efficient way to cool your home. A UCLA study found that a whole house fan essentially eliminated the need for an air conditioner in 10 of the 16 California climate zones.
- I almost had to do a hard sell on this with my husband, because he wasn't sure of the benefits. The very first time we turned the thing on, he stood there with me in the hallway and said, wow, this is amazing. And I thought to myself, why didn't we do this years earlier.
- I've also invested in solar electric some years back, which was a great investment. But, dollar for dollar, this is far and away the best investment I ever made in my home.
- So, would you say you love your QuietCool?
- I love my QuietCool system.
- I do love it.
- I love it too.
- I would say I love my QuietCool system. There's no, in four words, in five words, I love my QuietCool. I love it.
- Oh, I totally love the whole system, yeah. I love the features on the switches, that there's many different options, and on the timer. I loved it so much, my sister as well came over and saw how great it was, she got one installed and loves it too.

The point we are trying to make is that OEM's state in their installation manuals that static pressure levels above .60 wci in a duct run are not acceptable, yet the present code could technically approve a duct run that amounts to 1.25 wci of pressure.
How is that possible? For two main reasons; the termination hoods have no governing criteria as it relates to static pressures they create, and the typical ell the trade uses creates much more pressure than what the code 5 foot reduction penalty implies.
How we figured:
The use of a 4" x 4" gooseneck roof vent (.70 wci), 25 feet of pipe at .01 wci per foot (.25 wci), two standard ells at .15 each (.30 wci)

Reduce your A/C Bill and Save up to 50-90 Percent!

- If you could ride on a current of clean fresh air, enter a home and replace the stale, stuffy air up to 20 times per hour, eliminating orders, pollutants, pet dander and more, all while saving you 50 to 90% off your AC cost, it's because of the advanced whole-house fan by QuietCool. So, sit back and relax, and don't touch that remote. Because I'm going to tell you how to enjoy better health and comfort for just pennies an hour. I know what you're thinking. I'm wearing a QuietCool shirt and I'm standing in our showroom. So, what do you think it would take for actual customers to take time to give testimonial, singing the praises of QuietCool? All it takes is appreciation and truth. Check it out.
- I ran my AC considerably less, and it saved me a lot of money in the Summer.
- I think we turned it on only maybe three times this summer.
- Our air conditioner is hardly ever on anymore. The QuietCool just makes the house so cool in the middle of the night. It's just been a big difference.
- Me being home a lot, I haven't put on the AC at all.
- We absolutely save money off our electricity bill. I use to run the AC 24/7 in the Summer. I don't have to do that anymore.
- Air conditioning bill this Summer, and the electricity bill in the Summer was about $700, a month. And then after the QuietCool's installed, it went down to about $200 a month.
- Okay, you've heard it straight from the horse's mouth. Real QuietCool customers, real testimonials. Just because they're so happy with our product. So, how does it work? Understanding thermal mass cooling is an essential principle to how QuietCool whole house fans work. Here's an example. When someone comes home from work, they enter a house that could be upwards of 90 degrees. Do they immediately turn on the air conditioner? Not with QuietCool. An AC system alone would take too much time and be incredibly expensive. It's just like when you'd get into a car on a hot Summer day. What's the first thing do? You open the windows to let the hot air out, right? When you start driving, the airflow begins to exchange the hot air, then you roll up the windows, and turn on your car's AC. A QuietCool home owner won't open a few windows, turn on their QuietCool fan and let fresh cooler air evacuate their home of the existing stale air. The QuietCool fan creates an active breeze, which not only cools the inside air, but also cools down the mass of the home. Instead of recycling hot, stale, ambient air like a closed loop AC unit, the QuietCool system exchanges the stale air with fresh, cool, outside air to an open-loop, whole house ventilation system. And, at a fraction of the cost of running an air conditioner. Now that your home's thermal mass has been cooled, what are the benefits of this? A cool thermal mass home does not reheat as much or as quickly as a hot thermal mass home. Within a day or two of installing a QuietCool system, home owners are amazed when they come home after work, and it's 90 or a hundred degrees outside; they walk into a home that is not 90 degrees, but maybe in the mid 70's. That's because the thermal mass of the home has been cooled by the QuietCool system, and did not reheat as rapidly throughout the day as a typical home would. This not only raises the comfort level of these living in the home, but it also will drastically reduce your AC usage, bringing down the AC related cost, and will help your air conditioning unit last longer. Pacific Gas and Electric claims that whole house fans use up to 90% less energy than compressor-based air conditioners. The USDepartment of Energy reports that installing a whole house fan is the most cost efficient way to cool your home. A UCLA study found that a whole house fan essentially eliminated the need for an air conditioner in 10 of the 16 California climate zones.
- I almost had to do a hard sell on this with my husband, because he wasn't sure of the benefits. The very first time we turned the thing on, he stood there with me in the hallway and said, wow, this is amazing. And I thought to myself, why didn't we do this years earlier.
- I've also invested in solar electric some years back, which was a great investment. But, dollar for dollar, this is far and away the best investment I ever made in my home.
- So, would you say you love your QuietCool?
- I love my QuietCool system.
- I do love it.
- I love it too.
- I would say I love my QuietCool system. There's no, in four words, in five words, I love my QuietCool. I love it.
- Oh, I totally love the whole system, yeah. I love the features on the switches, that there's many different options, and on the timer. I loved it so much, my sister as well came over and saw how great it was, she got one installed and loves it too.

How to reduce your clothes drying time and save energy costs

The point we are trying to make is that OEM's state in their installation manuals that static pressure levels above .60 wci in a duct run are not acceptable, yet the present code could technically approve a duct run that amounts to 1.25 wci of pressure.
How is that possible? For two main reasons; the termination hoods have no governing criteria as it relates to static pressures they create, and the typical ell the trade uses creates much more pressure than what the code 5 foot reduction penalty implies.
How we figured:
The use of a 4" x 4" gooseneck roof vent (.70 wci), 25 feet of pipe at .01 wci per foot (.25 wci), two standard ells at .15 each (.30 wci)

If they were not enough, we have developed 7 points solar energy audit system where each and every step is to evaluate your unique situation and make sure your property is suitable for solar panel installation. The solar energy audit is two parts system. The first part is pre-solar evaluation and the second part is a post-solar evaluation. The pre-solar evaluation is a 3 point evaluation system where your house is evaluated for solar readiness. If the house is solar panel installation ready, only then, we even consider a post-solar evaluation. The post-solar evaluation is a 4 point evaluation system where our solar energy expert analyzes your energy bill for 12 months, runs a tool which analyzes last 20 years worth of weather data and comes up with a solar energy suitability report. Your property gets a solar energy suitability score. If the score is not high enough, we don’t recommend you to install solar energy as it won’t be profitable. If the score is high enough and our solar energy expert thinks that power generation can’t be hindered due to shading, you will be provided information with the next steps. Based on the information, you have the option to go ahead with the solar panel installation or not. If you do decide, our certified solar energy installation partners will install the solar energy system for your home or business.
